*************************** ** THE GEM MESSENGER ** *************************** Volume 8, Number 45 December 3, 1998 ------------------------------------------------ Constellation Book Release and Order Information ------------------------------------------------ From: Vassilis Angelopoulos (vassilis at ssl.berkeley.edu) Dear Colleague, We have received the final submissions to the volume titled: "Science closure and enabling technologies for Constellation class missions" to be published by the University of California Press and NASA. The book is a compilation of papers that presents theoretical and phenomenological arguments and lists technical challenges and solutions surrounding the Constellation class missions. The book is currently in press and will become available to the community in January of 1999. The authors are entitled to a copy of the final book. Several copies will be distributed to NASA/HQ and NASA centers. If you would like a library or organization to receive a copy please e-mail pdunn at ssl.berkeley.edu with your request. The remaining copies will be sent to the community for a cost that includes shipping and handling. To order, send a check for $10. payable to the Regents of the University of California (or "Regents of UC"), to the following address: Constellation Volume c/o Patrick Dunn, Space Sciences Laboratory, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720-7450. To reserve a copy from the first printing please contact pdunn at ssl.berkeley.edu After the first 200 copies are distributed in this way, additional copies may become available (depending on demand) through a second printing by the University of California Press, at which point the full cost of the book will be borne by the purchasers (estimated to be ~$45).
